Last Monday I had my annual ultrasound vein test for my feet and legs...something related to my heart. Last year it was pretty darn good...because I think, my arm blood pressure is staying pretty low, and they do a percentage comparing leg to arms to find my "efficiency level." It was about 0. 96 last year. This year it went over 1.2 on each leg. The PA who saw me was very happy.
So even though my walks are slow, with resting, I've increased the muscles in my legs to help those veins work better. I made it all the way around the lake by the next-to-last try last week. Well, the last try was later in the day and hot sun, so I quit and just turned around after making it to take a few pics of wildflowers, and one for some tourists of themselves.
I'll post them tomorrow!
No wonder artists have trouble retiring...the work just continues inside us...though in my case I don't produce physical art, but have switched to photos and blogs.
Today's quote:
Jon Stewart said "If you don't stick to your values when they're being tested, they're not values — they're hobbies.
